Yes there absolutely was, probably actually before windows 95. But even in 95 there were a lot of crappy ascii art games bcz there wasn’t anything better technologically, so nobody would actually call it crappy.

What’s your point? The game isnt my cup of tea. That’s all I was saying. If you like it, thats fine.

Same, I could play it if it was like nes pixel art even. But this looks like it was developed on windows 95 when only ascii art was available.

And the constant text updating you on what is around you bcz the graphics are so primitive.

Based on the description I thought it would be really interesting. But after watching a YouTube video, I was like, eehhhhh, not for me.

How have you survived in this world without exploding into a million little fiery merge conflicts?

Can confirm, not a current linux user. I have a DnD group to talk too…

Puts on tinfoil hat

There’s a good chance Amazon has been inside your house and inspected your washing machine without your knowledge or consent…

I use Unreal Engine right now, but I’ve also used Godot and Unity in the past. I dont use Unity anymore, and probably won’t ever bcz of some shenanigans they’ve pulled in the recent past. Also used pygame, and way back before I discovered game engines I tried using OpenGL and SDL directly. (Do not recommend going that route) They are way too low level for you to make any real progress, at least in a timely manner. They are what you’d want to use if you are trying to write your own game engine, but most people aren’t trying to do that. Most people just want to make games.

Why would you phrase workers rights that way? Its like people have been brainwashed into thinking anything good for everyone, we have to come up with a word for it to make it sound awful…its propaganda 101, and you’ve either bought into it, or youre a bad actor. Either way, fuck off.

Oh, sorry, I meant check out Codeberg.org. I didnt mean to imply I have a plugin for music or a music streaming app you should check out. I do game dev, totally unrelated stuff, that I dont think you would be interested in :P

I’m going to migrate my own code to Codeberg.org soon. Its open source, and hosted outside the U.S., so checks all the non-corporo boxes i want. Maybe check that out?

You couldn’t pay me to write a game in C today. Our expectations of what games have to be are sky high today. You cant get away with the productivity lost writing in c, maybe c++ since its supported by a number of engines. But, im personally not aware of a single engine that uses C. I tried my hand at writing a game without an engine, and it was a hot mess. Writing low level code to make a button with text, no thanks…been there done that, in my game, you could bump into trees and get stuck…not very fun in my opinion, and thats after a few months of writing code.

I mean, its not a terrible game. I just really wish they would have stuck to the original story. If you havent played the original, thats probably a good thing when playing the remake bcz then you don’t have a comparison.

Yeah, depending on where you say this people will absolutely rail you for it. I dont understand why people are accepting of this crap.

Final Fantasy Remake Part 1

They changed the story and introduced Whispers to the game, something about Fate trying to drive the story the way its supposed to be. Then they made Sephiroth the final boss of what is now known to be a trilogy (bcz money)…

My absolute favorite game got ruined bcz they decided they needed to “shake the game up”. And now part 2 “Rebirth” is some multiverse bullshit.

I hate everything about this corporate BS they turned the remake into. But, I have to live with it bcz its not my game.

Best I could do is buy rebirth used from game stop so Square Enix didnt get any of my money.

Instead, I play the original from time to time, and I have to try to block out the remake changes they have made.

The franchise was so successful, that Square Enix made idiotic spinoffs and added characters to iconic scenes who weren’t there. They’ve just completely ruined the original game with how much they’ve milked the franchise. Its tragic to me, and not many people care that much.

I really wanted a remake that made the changes that were necessary to play to a modern audience, clear up the confusing story points more fleshed out so they were direct, and maybe changed up a boss or two. Basically I wanted the same thing they did with Resident Evil 4 remake, but instead we got a garbage trilogy.

Because you chose to go to the doctor! Duhhh

Im talking specifically in the context of Germany. They are as a people deeply ashamed of their past Nazi history, and the genocide of the Jewish people. Ive been there many times, and been to exhibits around Germany, and almost without fail, when Nazi Germany comes up they get very uncomfortable about it.

The fact that they are trying to repeat Nazism now is wild to me considering its become a part of their cultural identity to be ashamed of what their grandparents and great grandparents did.

Its insane to me that after 80 years we are having to learn the same lessons over again. What’s even more insane is that these far-right groups are being pushed by Russia, China, Iran, etc. And they are so so successful beyond their wildest dreams.

You’d think people would stop and ask is this source or astroturfing real? But, no, we eat this shit up.

I hope Nintendo dies a slow painful death…wishful thinking, but maybe with their shit policies it will eventually catch up to them. Not today I guess…

You know what, as long as its a once in a while thing. Dont sweat it. Judgy calorie counting apps can suck it. You do you!
